Dave Larsen American Indian Immersion Experience

The Dave Larsen Immersion Experience is a unique cross-institution and community collaboration that provides participants with the opportunity to travel on a bus with other American Indian students from neighboring high schools, two-year and four-year institutions, learning from elders, college faculty, and American Indian education specialists, with the intention of increasing academic scholarship from an Indigenous perspective and decreasing the opportunity gap in K-12 and high education for native students. For five days, a 45-passenger bus is transformed into an experiential classroom, where students gather knowledge from places and peoples, including sites of historic and cultural significance to the first peoples of Minnesota and Wisconsin, and tribal leaders, artists, activists and musicians in each location.
